Xfiles theme song.
As soon as that shit came on I ran to bed. Fuuuck that, terrifying.

Holy crap, I forgot this was even a thing … I was awash with memories and feelings as soon as I read the title.
It was M.A.S.H. for me … parents watching reruns, I think, as I’m not that old.
This question reminds me of the early '70s, in Italy, when only a state-owned TV channel was broadcasting, and without ads. Except between 8:30 and 9:00 pm, in a special time where the spots were like little show, the children were watching them with their eyes glued to the screen, and then… bedtime! It was “Carosello”, and for the whole Italy: “the children to bed after Carosello”!
Cheers. Every weeknight, walking down the hallway to the sound of “Making your way in the world today takes everything you’ve got…”
I’m not familiar with M.A.S.H. (though I know of the show) to know that song. So I read it to myself to the tune of this beaut
Not really a show, but Im familiar with the old CBC (canada) sign-off. Wasn’t really my bed time either, I have insomnia disorder, I would just read books after the tv went off-air for the night. I’m also familiar with the CBC sign-on, and the first program on in the morning was 100 Huntley Street, followed by the PTL Club, before Jim and Tammy Faye went to jail.
Not always bedtime but the stopwatch to start 60 Minutes was a weekly reminder that the party is over and school is imminent.
Damn, I felt that. 😩
That ominous stopwatch ticking every morning meant that it was time to get on the school bus and that the party was over.
Wait what? You watched 60 Minutes everyday? It was always Sunday evenings from my memories, during winter usually right after a Football game, don’t remember the exact timing tho.
Local news ending or TNG opening
The post-credit logos of the Simpsons were a synonym of bedtime.
Didn’t the Simpsons ends like at 6?
Literally the closing signal of the evening tales show, the Hungarian “Television Bear”.
The closing credits for ALF.
Hey Willie!
M.A.S.H
My bed was in view of the living room TV, as long as I kept my head under the covers and pretended to be asleep I could watch MASH.
For me that meant that dinner was half an hour away. That tune always makes me hungry now.
i love lucy.
we would all drop what we were doing; get together on the couch and watch it every weeknight when my parents starting enforcing a bedtime to help get them more sleep out of their working schedules.
The ending of get smart but on nick and night not first run I’m not that old
